Giants sign Murphy from Panthers

With leading receiver Victor Cruz still unsigned, the New York Giants have added Louis Murphy.

The Giants on Tuesday confirmed the signing of the speedy receiver who played last season with Carolina. The five-year veteran has 115 receptions for 1,707 yards and seven touchdowns, including 25 catches with the Panthers in 2012.

Murphy was Oakland’s fourth-round draft choice in 2009. As a rookie, he scored four touchdowns.
